Ch 1 Unity & Diversity
Take a brief look at our genetic code.
Here you'll find a 99.9% similarity between humans and a 0.1% difference.
Very simply put: Sameness & Uniqueness.
Take a look at the eye.
The pupil is our shared being.
The iris is our artistic expression.
Every truth has been partial.
We now integrate all variables, all narratives.
The collective and the individual.
The left and the right.
The east and the west.
The indigenous and the modern.
There has yet to be a story, a map, that contains it all.
Ch 2 What is Time?
Look at a clock.
Look before your conditioning.
See the squiggly lines as symbols.
Before these symbols, what was 'time'?
Strip the conditioning away.
What are you left with?
Eternity.
What was meant to be a simple coordination mechanism became a cultural hypnosis into finity.
Ch 3 Symphonies don't play one song
Uni-verse means one-song.
Multi-verse means many-songs.
How many musical combinations can you imagine?
If your answer is endless, then you understand.
Our cosmology is that simple.
So busy investigating quarks we're forgetting to dance.
Ch 4 Quantum Mechanics
Matter is what appears.
What is underlying is energy.
Modulations/fluctuations of energy.
How many combinations of energy can you imagine?
If your answer is endless, then you understand.
Our cosmology is that simple.
Ch 5 Infants
Before the name, what is a child?
Before telling a child who they are, who are they?
What is that which is before all layers of identity?
This is the realization of infinity.
The ineffable absolute lies before all conditioning.
Strip away the symbols from a clock.
Strip away the name from a child.
Strip away the matter from energy.
All that is left is the infinite.
Eternally modulating.
Ch 6 What is Love?
Love is the recognition that we share this eternal modulation.
Love is ultimate unity in temporary diversity.
Love is the sun, radiating unconditional warmth.
Through endless combinations of clouds, the sun shines.
What is observing through you is what is observing through me.
Love recognizes this shared awareness and cannot inflict harm.
This seer is the ultimate, and even it is dreamed.
Ch 7 Dreams
A dream is an exploration, a play.
A simulated modulation.
Immersion into first-person view.
Requiring an observer just like reality does.
A dream is like a uni-verse.
One song ends and the next begins.
The modulation changes, but the observer remains the same.
Dreams are many-songs, just like realities are.
The music is modulating all around you, can you hear?
Ch 8 Music
Silence between notes is like empty space.
Frequently unnoticed yet provides void.
Quieting mind gains access to void which yields clarity.
The notes are great, but so is the silence.
Refrain from speaking & technology for one day to feel it yourself.
The climax is not the last note.
Just like the journey is not the destination.
Ch 9 Surfing Fireworks
Every appearance is a celebration, a firework.
Do you wish to fight the wave or surf on the crest?
Are you counting sprinkles on your neighbor's ice cream cone?
Taste the rainbow.
Eternal combinations of fireworks.
Unending, blissful, peaceful, wondrous.
Missing this is missing the expression of life itself.
Ch 10 One Two Many
All is One.
All is also Two.
All is also Many.
There is no separation. We're already it.
